Description
This book provides a comprehensive and practical guide to program evaluation, specifically tailored for practitioners in community education. It addresses the growing need for evidence-based outcomes in the non-profit and community education sectors. Many practitioners, while passionate about their work, experience "evaluation anxiety" due to a lack of formal training in this area. This book demystifies the evaluation process, offering a step-by-step approach, from planning and data collection to analysis and reporting.
It empowers practitioners to not only demonstrate the value of their work, but also to use evaluation as a tool for continuous program improvement. The book is filled with real-world examples and case studies to illustrate key concepts.
